My last period began April 19. About a month after that, I had a minimal amount of spotting but no period. I figured I hadn't ovulated that month, due to a very stressful career change. I took a couple of pregnancy tests just to see, both were negative. After the spotting, I have had intercourse. Now, I experienced minimal spotting once about six days ago, and once this morning. I took a third pregnancy test about a week ago, also negative. Normally, my periods are very regular - like a calendar! I have been TTC for 9 months - had a m/c in January. Any thoughts?

This post could have been written by me. My periods are like clockwork, and I have been trying to conceive for the past two months. My last period began on May 9, and then a week ago, I had minimal spotting for three days. If the spotting were my "true" period, it was already a week late, as I have a 31 day cycle. I have had definite pregnancy symptoms (nausea, vomiting, fainting, breast tenderness, vaginal dryness), but am testing negative.

A friend who just gave birth three weeks ago, said that she tested negative until she was 9 weeks pregnant. Anyone hear of that possibility? I am wondering if there is still any chance I could be pregnant. I am hesitating going to the doctor, as I hate to go, am already taking prenatals, and doing everything I should be if I were pregnant. I hate to go, only to hear them say that I am not...

Hmmm.... that's interesting. Spotting blood, either in the form of brown discharge or more obvious blood, often indicates that there's a hormonal imbalance or change going on. That can happen if you're pregnant too of course, but the negative pregnancy tests basically rule that out. It's also possible for that kind of thing to be caused by reproductive conditions like PCOS and endometriosis. And then, it's possible you just had a slight injury from energetic sex or sport or something. 

In any case, if you're worried, definitely make an appointment to be seen by your doctor to get some peace of mind.

I found out eventually that I was actually pregnant, and the spotting was a miscarriage. :-( We are giving up for now, and going to try again in January after a vacation out of the country.

Just found out last week that I am pregnant! The spotting from June turned out to be a miscarriage. I didn't learn that I had lost it until nearly two weeks later. At that point, my partner and I decided to start using birth control to hold off on getting pregnant for a while.

Well, a week later, lo and behold.... it was too late for contraception! I am now 5 weeks pregnant and doing well! Just got diagnosed with a UTI today, but the doc says that baby is fine. Keeping my fingers crossed![/img]

Ok,
Here's my story, I have two children already and my husband and I have not even thought about another one. I have been feeling sick pretty much all day for the past 5 days, I've also been cramping, and now I'm spotting bright red. It won't matter either way if I am pregnant or not but I'm confused. I know spotting is normal for early pregnancy and so is cramping and nausea, but the tests are negative. With my other pregnancies I knew I was pregnant before the tests would show up positive. I believe with my first I was 8 weeks before the test turned positive, and with my second it was 7 weeks. What are the chances that I'm pregnant again?

My story goes like this, My course was due last week. On Thursday of last week I spotted, not even the whole day. I took a UPT on Monday and it was negative. My cycle was like clock work, I am taking BCP and have been for 10 yrs. I did recently change my pills. I have been nauseous daily since Thursday and have had headaches. No other "pregnancy" symptoms. Should I take another UPT and if so how long should I wait. Or should I call my GYN?

I stopped my birth control last month and now I have had one day of light spotting and now nothing. Im extremely tired, but not nauseated. I've taken 4 hpt's and all negatives! I have read lots and lots of womens stories that say even after a doctors blood test that says positive, they still tested negative at home...so if I don't start soon I will go to the doctore...good luck everyone! Consider googling your questions you might have and read how many women out there have special and strange circumstances as they find out they are pregnant...its really interesting

My problems are:
- never had spotting then i have spotting now.
- hyperthyroid
- irregular periods.
- bloated stomach
- acne
- when i have my period, they are very light.

Went to see 2 doctors:
1. endocrinologist
My thyroid level has become normal but my hormone level is high and she sent me to have an ultrasound and it turns out I have PCOS( Polycystic Ovary Syndrome).
so she told me to go see an OB/GYN and recommend taking Metmorfin.

2. OB/GYN
result of consultation:
- she gave me birth control because Metmorfin is not for me because my cysts are still small. There is a possibility these cysts can be washed out from my body after i have my period.
she told me to have another ultrasound after i am done with my period.

All these happened in the past week, so there is no changes or improvement in my body yet.

Btw, my OBGYN mentioned that period can be a little off after travelling.

hopefully this helps.

My period hasn't showed up yet there are 5 days left until the month is over. I feel the morning sickness sometimes. I go to sleep like 8:00 when normally it is around midnight. I normally urinate about 2-3 times a day. Now I have been urinating 6-8 times a day. I have been spotting. My spotting has been a brownish color, very light and I see little streaks of it when I wipe after urinating.

Ok this is my story I have never written on here before but here goes. I have Endo and Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome and I have been having unprotected sex since November (08). Ok it is now July (09) and I was due for my period on the 13th 14th and it is not the 24th and all I am getting is spotting with very little to no cramps just on my side. Now I did take 3 pregnancy test 1 came up positive the line was so faint that I could barely see it. That test was a test a friend got from the clinic she use to work at. Now the second test that I took was an EPT pregnant or not pregnant. Those 2 tests came back negative. So I have no idea what to think or should I just let it go as I am not pregnant and just see if I get my Period. Now when I found out I was pregnant with my first child I was 8 weeks along and the positive line was very faint then also. So any advice would be great. Thanks

I've been trying to conceive but then over the summer found out i had PCOS. My dr did some test and come to find out that im not ovulating. Im currently not on any birth control pills or any other type of meds. But for the last month my period has been really wierd. I spotted for about a week on and off nov 7-nov 10 it stopped n i had sex nov 12. on nov 13th when i went to the dr i explained it 2 her but she really didnt say much but then on nov 20th i begin to bld then on the 21st i found out i had a Y.I. The bld only lasted 5 days. Here i am on day 35 i havent gotten my period yet. Yesterday i had a few little brown spots. I woke up this morning with a fever my body is aching, nausea and a headache. I've also been urinating more often and my boobs are itchy and around the nipple the skin is dry. Could these be symptoms of pregnancy? Im hoping that despite my condition that i got lucky and ovulated. Anybody go through something similar?
